I have been on it since April 2004 and I like it a great deal. But I do believe it is actualy for anxiety and I did not realize it was also for depression. Hmmm ya learn something new everyday. But another secret about Lexapro is that is also helps with pain. I know it is a little pricey but unfortunately I do not know of any meds that are cheaper that come close. Sorry. Chin Up!
